I've heard quite a few Marantz receivers including: 2216, 2220B, 2230, 2245, 2250B, 2252, 2265, 2270, 2325, 2385, 2500, and 2600. I just heard the 2285B for the first time and compared it to the 2265, 2270, and 2500 in my collection.
I have to say the 2285B may be the best sounding of the lot. It has the sweetness of the little receivers but enough power to open up speakers. This may change as I have not heard the 2275 or the 2330.
